Bates College

Female Bobcat of the Week Olivia LaMarche (Lynnfield, Mass.) placed 33rd out of 406 individuals, joining teammates Jessica Wilson and Katherine Cook as All-New England selections.

After placing fifth out of 59 teams at the NCAA New England Regionals, the No. 8 nationally ranked Bobcats received one of 16 at-large team bids from the NCAA selection committee. Thirty-two teams in all will compete for the team title.

This will be the fourth time in program history that Bates will compete as a team at NCAAs -- previous excursions netted a 19th-place team finish in 2012, 15th place in 1997 and 18th place in 1995.
